Bonus Time Coming For National League MONTREAL (CP) --It's nearly bonus time in the Na- tional Hockey League. _ And centre Stan Mikita of Chicago Black Hawks and goal- tender Ed Giacomin of New York Rangers appear certain to collect. the mid-way money for their performances during the season's first half. The NHL awards bonuses of $500 to the scoring leader, $250 to the runner-up and $250 to the top goaltender after all clubs have played 35 games in the circuit's 70-game 'schedule. NH statistics released today indicate that a $500 cheque might as well be mailed to Mikita right now. With the Hawks still two from their half- way point, Mikita holds a 16- point lead in the individual scoring race with 17 goals and a league-leading 35 assists for 52 points. And the league gays that un- less Montreal Canadiens post two successive shutouts in their next two starts, Giacomin will pocket the $250 bonus for goal- tenders. GIACOMIN'S AVERAGE BEST The Ranger goalie has a per- sonal average of 2.15 goals against in New York's 36 games, best in the léague. Canadiens' Charlie Hodge is close behind at 2.16. Ken Wharram of Chicago, one of Mikita's linemates, is second in scoring and stands to collect the $250 bonus as the runner-up in the scoring race. He has 19 goals and 13 assists for 36 points, a_ three - point leader over Canadiens' Bobby Rousseau, the onaly man Willie Fleming Retires; Could Ruin Lions' Deal VANCOUVER (CP) -- Willie Fleming, the B.C. Lions spec- tacular halfback, said Monday night he has retired from pro- fessional football. Fleming, who gained Cana- dian Football League fame. for his dazzling running, said his decision came amid a deal with the Minnesota Vikings. "J made my decision over the weekend,"' the 27-year-old Flem- ing said in an interview. "I've told both coach (Dave) Skrien in Vancouver and Jim Finks in Minneapolis. "I'm definitely through with football."' Fleming, an eight-year vet- eran with the Lions, had been offered a $33,000 contract to go with the National Football League Vikings in exchange for their halfback Jim Young. Asked why he was retiring, "I just felt tired. After all, I've been playing pro ball for "I just felt that I wanted to get out now and devote my time to my clothing store business and my family." STARTED IN 1958 Willie. left Iowa University after his sophomore year to join the Lions under coach Wayne Robinson in 1958 and be- came an instant CFL star. In subsequent years, his ex- plosive running bursts broke CFL records and made him a Canadian all-star in 1963 and a Western Conference all-star in 1961 and 1963. His 9.7-yard rushing average in 1968, when he gained 1,234 yards and scored 12 touchdowns, 'was a record. WILLIE FLEMING - all through A 109-yard touchdown burst from scrimmage against Ed- monton ih 1964 was also a re- cord. He scored the clinching touch- down for B.C. in the 1964 Grey Cup win over Hamilton. Fleming's last two years were plagued by minor injuries and he was switched to flanker from his halfback position. At season end, the Lions sent defensive player Dick Fouts and Bill Symons to Toronto in the first move of the pending Min- nesota deal. Toronto gave up its rights to Jim Young, who was to come to the Lions in a trade for Fleming. with a chance to catch him as Canadiens are also two games away from the half-way mark. New York Rangers climbed back into first place in the standings during the weekend when they defeated Montreal 2-1 as Chicago lost 3-1 to Boston Bruins. New York has 43 points in 36 games while Chicago is in second spot with 41 points in 33 games. Toronto Maple Leafs are third with 38 points, followed by Montreal with 34, Detroit Red Wings with 27 and Boston 23. In the scoring derby, Rous- seau is tied in third place with Phil Goyette of New York. Each has 33 points. HOWE SCORES 700TH Gordie Howe of Detroit scored his 700th: NHL 'goal last week, helping him into fifth place where he is tied with team- mate Norm Ullman at 32 points. Rod Gilbert of New York is seventh with 31 points, including a league-leading 20 goals. No, 8 is Bobby Hull of Chi- cago, who banged in four goals last week to increase his goal total to 19 and his points to 28. This is far behind his record- setting pace of last season, when he collected 54 goals, but still ahead of the 1961-62 season when he got 50 goals. Bernie Geoffrion of New York, making a sparkling comeback this season, is ninth in scoring with 11 goals and 16 assists for 27 points. TIE FOR 10TH Tied in 10th with 26 points apiece are Don Marshall of New York, Pit Martin of Boston Goaltender Roger Crozier of Detroit Red wings, showing the form of a baseball outfielder, leaps along with defenceman Howie Young to catch a ANYONE FOR BASEBALL? flying puck against Mont- real Canadiens recently.

That was the year in which they won the AFL title in pro football's longest game, edging Houston Oilers 20-17 in a second sudden-death quarter. But while they had been artistically suc- cessful they also had been fi- nancially -drained by the war with the National League's Dal- las Cowboys. | And so Hunt took it to KC, where the Chiefs began to take a physical beating that may be unmatched in the history of any pro football team -- but ulti-| mately become the AFL's entry| in the long-awaited Super Bowl game.

Transportation Problem First Hurdle By AL McNEIL QUEBEC (CP)--Some 2,000 athletes from across Canada will take part in the First Canadian Winter Games here Feb. 11-19 and just getting them here on schedule will be a major undertaking. In all, 13 sports will be rep- resented. The complex job of arranging travel, playing times and housing has been the task of the director-gen- eral, Guy Rousseau, and his assistant, Gerard Beaudry. Beaudry has had 25 years in the army as a combat and sports officer and his expe- rience will be useful in plot- ting the logistics of the Games. Original plans called for the 10 provinces to partici- pate," he says. "Then sud- denly we found we had an- other 200 athletes coming in from the Yukon and North- west Territories--so you back- . track and make changes to ' accommodate. "We've arranged with Air Canada for the athletes, train- ers and coaching and admin- istrative personnel to be picked up at designated points in each province." Competitors from the two territories will join British Co- lumbia's contingent at Van- couver, Prairie athletes will be airlifted from Edmonton, Calgary, Regina, Saskatoon and Winnipeg and Ontario's team will be assembled at Fort William, Toronto, Ottawa and North Bay. BADMINTON LEADS OFF Montreal will be the staging point for Quebec province and Halifax, Fredericton, Char- lottetown, St. John's, Gander and Stephenville will be col- lection points for the Atlantic provinces.

ALL PLAY HOCKEY The hockey tourfiament will be staged at the 12,000-seat Coliseum Feb. 13-19.

Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and the territories won't be sendin teams while Newfoundlan will have a team of four in- stead of the usual eight wres- tlers plus two officials.

The National Football League Packers meet the American Football League Chiefs Sunday in the first Super. Bowl game, with the winner getting a 20- inch sterling silver trophy as well as $15,000 a man. The trophy will be presented by NFL commissioner Pete Ro- zelle after the game to the winning team for its permanent possession. Miners Topple Finnish Nats HELSINKI (Reuters) -- Drumheller Miners beat Fin- land 5-4 in an_ international hockey match Monday to gain some consolation for their 8-2 defeat in Tampere Sunday. The Allan Cup champions led 3-0 after the first period and 4-3 after the second. The game was rough and at one stage one of the referees, Sweden's Olle Granberg, was slightly injured when accident- ally hit by a stick. The Canadians' determina- tion took the Finnish team by surprise. Forwards Gene Lam- bert, and Pat Halas were in good form. Esa Peltonen scored twice for Finland. Scorers for Canada were Jim The game will be played in Memorial Coliseum. 'Meanwhile, in Santa Barbara where the Packers are holding daily workouts, coach Vince Lombardi said a tarpaulin will be put up at the open end of the practice field. PRACTICE TWO HOURS The Packers held a two-hour practice session Monday and Lombardi told reporters after- wards that he's not taking the Chiefs lightly. "I'm not impressed with the odds on the game," he said. "T do not think the $15,000 will {be a major factor in the players doing well. I think they will be playing for their league and for themselves. "Kansas City has good speed, and they certainly have good athletes, and that's the only thing I can go by. All their de- fensive backs impressed me." The Packers will arrive here Friday. TAKE DAY OFF At Long Beach, where the Chiefs are holding a ed workouts, coach Hank Stram gave his players the day off to watch films of the Packers' loss to Minnesota Vikings earlier this season and Green Bay's victory over Dallas Cowboys for the NFL title.
